Good morning everyone and happy MonDEV ☕
We have reached the third newsletter of September, we are getting back to normal and in the last few days, due to a series of coincidences, I came across a really huge number of things that I really want to present to you!
Probably at some point I will create a newsletter that groups some of them by theme.
Meanwhile, as I have decided to alternate tools between backend, frontend, and various utilities with a bit more regularity, this Monday I wanted to leave you something to use on the front end.
As some of you may know, in the great debate of frameworks I always stand on the side of Vue (despite a never-dying and secret love for jQuery, but let's not say it around 🥲🤫). I find it very linear and intuitive, it allows you to do everything but without the overhead present in many other frameworks.
One of the issues that are often highlighted is that there are few libraries developed for Vue compared to those maybe compatible with react.
So now every time I find a library developed for Vue, I will review it in the newsletter 😎 Of course, this is a joke, but I really liked the library of this week for its linear implementation and completeness.
It's Vuestic, a library of components for Vue, some classic and others a bit more unique but all well presented and documented.
To have a general idea of the components, on this page you will find an example for each of them, with code examples and links to the respective documentation.
Even the setup is very functional, allowing you to scaffold both an empty project and a pre-built dashboard. It also allows you to select any state managers, test tools to install, start with pre-configured typescript and/or tailwind.
So not only components but also flow are very convenient!
Give it a try and let me know 😉
Articles of the week
Math4devs: Not exactly an article, but a page I came across this week while browsing on LinkedIn; for math lovers, a list of mathematical symbols, with the corresponding date of adoption and how to express the same symbol/process in JS. Some are really interesting!
Open Source Guide: how to contribute: As already mentioned, we are in full Preptember, the month before hacktoberfest! If you have doubts on how to start contributing, how to find a good project or what are the ways to participate, this guide is for you 😁
As always, I hope I have left you with some interesting ideas, all that is left is to wish you a good week!
Happy Coding 0_1

Yes, good article :)
Vuestic is on my wishlist
Thanks Domenico! Yeah it's a really great and smooth tool to have when you're developing in Vue!
Do you have some comparsion with things like Vuetify or PrimeVue? Is Vuestic much different/better? Or it is just you find it first and got familiar with it the most?
